  1. If the zoo ever were to expand, the area bounded by the rail line, ohio st, white river parkway, and washington street is the logical area to do so. Almost entirely low density commercial / industrial / parking lots and a nonhistoric church building. No real loss to the city

    1. Could there be a plan to make the new properties contiguous with the current zoo property by moving the White River Parkway to the west and have the intersection with Washington St. to connect with Harding Street? That would make a lot of sense although the current Speedway station would obviously be in the way.
